Do lemons corrode a silver lining?

Yes.

Putting all things in perspective, acceptance into grad school is slippery. Comparing one applicant to another when you consider only that they went to undergrad together is no comparison at all.

Do I resent my rejection, and this other person's acceptance? Yes. Does the acidity of the lemon sting more in my wounds because of certain qualities that this person possesses? Oui. Do I feel that more the failure? Si.

Onward.
